April 19, 20242 yr Hi, Is there a way I can change the filename output with this docker container please? I would just like to include the quality in the file name. Thank you.

April 20, 20242 yr Thanks but i'm not sure where to add these? Do i add them to extra parameters, or do I need to modify a file?

April 20, 20242 yr i'm not running antyhing in the terminal, it runs automatically every 12hours. - I can see from the link you sent that the variables are added to the command, but that is why i'm confused.
April 20, 20242 yr there is an options file in appdata, but this only contains: atomicparsley /usr/sbin/atomicparsley ffmpeg /usr/sbin/ffmpeg

Oh, I don't use it to automatically download so I'm not too sure. Probably some info in tbr documentation about it though.
May 21, 20242 yr I'm getting this same atomicparsley error. Just installed the docker today. Strange thing is - its not in usr/sbin Any way to manually pull atomicparsley ?
May 28, 20242 yr Hi all, Would very much appreciate any help with a problem that has turned up in the last 2-3 days. Everything was, working fine and no updates/changes that i can see. Suddenly nothing is being downloaded and the logs seem to show that nothing is being searched for. extract below for illustration, its not showing the episodes already in history lines anymore which makes me suspect its not searching properly?

Yep sorry that's my fault, coding issue, its now fixed and a new image has been created, please pull down latest image and you should be good.
May 28, 20242 yr REALLY grateful for the quick response, honestly but a little bit of unexpected behaviour now i've pulled the new image to be aware of; Top of the Pops now pulls every episode of every show containing the words 'top' 'of' 'the' 'pops', including the word 'weather' its like its doing a substring search in a way it didnt used to before. Have tried with and without quotes in the docker paramenters page.
May 28, 20242 yr Should have been a bit more specific, apologies; All shows are displaying the same behaviour, but the above example was to illustrate. It never used to pull all these programmes, is there any way you could have a quick look to see if something is operating differently? Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks in advance. ahh i see, that looks like a quoting issue, i have reverted back to my previous code for that section, i was attempting to keep the code DRY but it looks like its a PITA to do, pull down latest image and let me know how you get on.
May 28, 20242 yr Seems to all be working as expected now, thanks loads for your help. Definitely one of if not the best repo guys supporting unraid. Much appreciated.
July 16, 20241 yr Good morning to all, i have installed the docker ( i was using the windows app before) witch is rooted through the openvpn docker. i use the following command "get_iplayer --type=tv --pid-recursive --pid=" and i get the following : INFO: Processing tv: '***: Series 1 - 10. *** (m000fl1f)' WARNING: No media streams found for requested programme versions and recording quality. WARNING: The programme may not be available - check the iPlayer or Sounds site. WARNING: The programme may only be available in an unsupported format (e.g., Flash) - check the iPlayer or Sounds site. WARNING: If you use a VPN/VPS/Smart DNS/web proxy, it may have been blocked. do you thing is a problem with the vpn? if it is answered before I'm sorry, honestly i didn't read through all the posts. thank you in advance Constantine

December 4, 20241 yr On 2/1/2024 at 7:51 PM, minkshaman said: I understand that the web pvr manager isn't included in this container, but is there a reason it's not? Just curious as it seems pretty straightforward. Pretty happy that this is available as a docker at all to be honest though! 1. Download the latest get_iplayer WPM release to working directory wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/master/get_iplayer.cgi 2. Install get_iplayer.cgi WPM script install -m 755 ./get_iplayer.cgi /usr/local/bin https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer/wiki/unix#web-pvr-manager-wpm So did you install the web pvr manager and run it successfully? I would also love to have this as a functionality. Seems like you could just forward the port and be able to access it maybe?
December 15, 20241 yr Is there a way to run it via terminal/ssh? I'd like to be able to download in 1080p which means using: --tv-quality="fhd" when running the get_iplayer command. Normally get_iplayer downlaods TV shows only in 1280x720, and having downloads at 1920x1080 would be nicer.
March 12, 20251 yr Radio shows Many thanks for the docker, just what I was after. I want to use it mainly for radio shows, so I found I needed to make the following changes to get it to work. I assume I may need to redo these when the container is updated ?? (unless the image can include radio shows by default also? for a drink!). Added the following line to search for shows to file: binhex-get-iplayer/options: type radio,tv Modified this line (in /home/nobody/start.sh) to move the *.m4a files from incomplete to complete folder: if [[ -n $(find /data/get_iplayer/incomplete/ -name '*.mp4' -o -name '*.m4a') ]]; then Update - now modified the start.sh line to: if [[ -n $(find /data/get_iplayer/incomplete/ -name '*.m??') ]]; then Next, trying to figure out: 1. How to automate modifying the line in start.sh (in case a docker update wipes it out) - and even if there is a better way to do it. 2. using mv/rsync/mc (and User Scripts) to schedule moving files from /completed to another share folder. thanks! Edited March 17, 20251 yr by kilo updated after playing around with stuff
March 31, 20251 yr I'd really love to see support for BBC Sounds added to this (moving m4a files, adding radio to search).

Totally forgot about this!, i shall see if i can get some time in the next couple of days to add this in, should be simple enough.
April 3, 20251 yr Author OK ended up reworking the script quite a bit, so audio (radio) support is now in, if you want to use it then pull down the new image and then add a new 'variable' to your container named 'AUDIO_SHOWS_NAME' to specify the name of the show, and if you want to use the show PID then add variable 'AUDIO_SHOWS_PID' (new users will have these already created).
